Sitecore Intranet Portal 3.1 Includes Ready-to-Run Features and Fully Customizable Page Layouts
Sitecore, the leading provider of .NET Web Content Management System (CMS) software, today announced the new release of its Sitecore Intranet Portal solution. Built on Sitecore’s Web CMS platform, Intranet Portal 3.1 helps organizations build an intranet that serves as the communications hub for the entire organization.
Corporate intranets can help build employee loyalty, and break down traditional organizational barriers. In addition, Sitecore Intranet Portal makes it easier and more efficient to manage and monitor compliance and standards processes with structured publishing and workflow that can adjust to any business logic, with security available at every level.
With a Wizard-driven starter kit, Sitecore Intranet Portal features a highly intuitive editing interface, which dramatically reduces the need to train content managers, including full integration with Microsoft Office® applications. Moreover, managers can easily customize their department’s intranet desktop to fit specific business needs.
“Our customers, across all industries, need to consistently communicate detailed information, in key areas that range from employee self service, rules and regulations to team building – often across multiple languages,” said Darren Guarnaccia, VP Product Marketing, Sitecore. “Sitecore Intranet Portal offers ease-of-use through prebuilt features that push corporate communications projects forward much more quickly and help facilitate employee engagement across an entire organization or department.”

Sitecore can automatically map this data to a wide range of related functions, including the organization chart, the company phone book, the editor of a Web page, and much more. Furthermore, Sitecore Intranet Portal integrates to Microsoft Active Directory® accessing AD user profiles for easy login and user information.
